this is such invigorating, galvanizing work & i'm so proud to be a small part of it. it's so meaningful to see entire outlets, not just individual journalists, banding together to consolidate existing coverage & collaborate on sharing this urgent reporting as widely as possible.
Prism is proud to be part of the media collective launching Media Against Apartheid & Displacement, a hub that gathers articles about the ongoing apartheid, occupation, & genocide in Gaza, US complicity, & resistance movements for Palestinian liberation.

between this statement and the one from whatshername abt guernica, a clearly-unintended side effect of this institutional evasiveness is that we're being shown that these organizations by/for writers are led by people who cannot fucking write. shallow, tacky, flippant thinking.
I find this statement by PEN president Jennifer Finney Boylan gross. a distracting, writerly attempt at animal metaphors that dodges the actual criticisms against PEN, an anti-war protest Boylan misrepresents as "authors silencing themselves"
